https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/13/15636276/marvel-black-panther-and-the-crew-cancelled-ta-nehisi-coates
Black Panther and the Crew is an all black cast of superheroes fighting against police corruption and systematic attacks on black people. The bad guys are sentinels similar to the Xmen's series, but they're called Americops. Total sales were at 35,000 which is abysmal. The series will be canceled, but fans of the series can rejoice that there will be a conclusion. The series will drag out and have its conclusion by issue 6 rather than just going on as a continuing series. --- {}\\{}(o){}\\//{}//=\\{})){}(< \\//{}{{-{}//\\{} {}xxxxxxxx{};;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;> ...

Was the series going to be about people acting like assholes standing in the street blocking traffic. Or about people marching through libraries being disruptive for no good reason? Or even better looting local businesses by throwing rocks through the windows and lighting shit on fire followed by flipping cars and making strange noises..?

should end it with black panther going to his car without costume and getting shot
then all the heroes are spurred to remember him by protesting against captain america and iron man and shield spiderman should go on a twitterstorm saying people are racist and black panther is a true hero then black panther comes back to life as a god and smacks thor down because thor has white privilege and black panther sentences those who stood against his movement with divine justice --- sigless user is me or am I? ...

Just because YOU think it's dumb doesn't mean everyone does. Yeah well from my point of view the Jedi are evil. Why cry about it? Only on CE does mocking, laughing, rejoicing in getting what we want = crying. Why is "crying" always the goto insult, is any level of discourse simply crying? It's not like making a comic like this means another one disappears. Well actually, yes, that's how finite resources work. Companies invest in artists, writers, storyboard, printing, etc which means that money is tied up in 1 project instead of another. --- "Tolerance of intolerance is cowardice." ~ Ayaan Hirsi Ali ...

Anarchy_Juiblex posted...TheVipaGTS posted...It was canceled because of special snowflakes like this who got offended. No. It's because they tried to appeal to a vocal crowd who doesn't read their fucking shit. "Wah wah wah I can't read this comic because straight white males if you did something else I'd read it." so they do something else and surprise surprise no one fucking reads it. Having stories about black people in which the main point of the story is that they're black is shitty storytelling in most cases. It works out well when the story is about real life (such as Moonlight) and not about capeshit punching robot cops. You should treat characters as if they're people first and foremost, and their labels secondary. Simon Baz talks about having been imprisoned in Gitmo, and the harassment his family faces, but the comic is, first and foremost, still a story about him cooperating with Jessica to punch Aliens in the face in the name of the Green Lantern Corps and not a twitter hashtag. --- ...

This was akin to placing Call of Duty ads on YouTube make-up tutorial videos.
